Twists Unfold in Joongang Tongyang Broadcasting Company’s ‘Heaven More Beautiful Than Heaven’
Episode 4 of Joongang Tongyang Broadcasting Company’s weekend drama ‘Heaven More Beautiful Than Heaven’ has turned the tables for its characters and viewers alike. The episode, aired on the 27th, revealed critical developments surrounding the mysterious identities of Somi and Lee Young-ae.
Hae-suk begins suspecting that Somi may actually be her long-lost acquaintance, Lee Young-ae. Her doubts grow stronger as she notices familiar habits and gestures, ultimately confirming her belief after checking Somi’s records at the Heaven Support Center.
Meanwhile, Heaven becomes increasingly tense as Hell Escapees roam freely, causing unrest. Go Nak-jun warns Hae-suk about the ongoing dangers and urges more caution, emphasizing that Somi may not be who she appears to be.
In another twist, a new church member, Bak Cheol-jin, is introduced at the Heaven Church. He presents himself as a composed and devout man, impressing the Pastor. Yet, his tragic backstory surfaces — he was a traveling vendor caring for his wife with dementia until he received a terminal cancer diagnosis. His desperation to ensure his wife’s safety led to an irreversible decision, ultimately branding him as a Hell Escapee.
Chaos erupts when Bak Cheol-jin takes Hae-suk hostage during a standoff with Heaven’s security and Hell Lion agents. However, Go Nak-jun heroically intervenes, presenting Bak with a red scarf — a cherished memento crafted by his late wife. This emotional trigger softens Bak’s resolve, ending the standoff peacefully.
With Bak Cheol-jin’s identity as the true Hell Escapee confirmed, suspicions surrounding Somi are temporarily cleared. However, the suspense escalates further when the real Lee Young-ae appears in a chilling, unknown realm, opening new mysteries for future episodes.
Fans are eagerly anticipating how the bond between Somi and Lee Young-ae will unfold, and what secrets remain hidden within the confines of Heaven and beyond.
